EFFECTIVE LEAKAGE DETECTION SYSTEM USING ARDUINO FOR PUBLIC WATER DISTRIBUTION BOARD

Water Leakage detection is an important problem in TWAD board especially in city site. In the existing system the opening and closing of water tanks at each location was done manually. Also, leakage cannot be detected accurately. Due to this factor, there is no efficient water supply. Also, it results in water scarcity problem. In order to reduce the leakage of water through pipelines and to develop an efficient water supply system this project provides the solution using microcontroller and with water flow control technology. The proposed system consists of an Arduino UNO, water flow sensor, Relay, solenoid valve, pH sensor and power supply unit. This proposed methodology can monitor the flow rate, identifies the leakage and then controls the operation of the total system. The methodology was first tested through Proteus simulation and it was implemented in the hardware
